STRONG BAD:{typing and speaking like a robot while bobbing his head sporadically} Good question, Brian. I am going to answer this email like a robot. Don't you think this is a great idea? {normal voice} Yeah, sorry, me neither. OK, other days o' the week. Let's see {spells "lessee"}...

{A calendar appears with a heading "A Month" and weeks starting on Monday. On Monday is written "checka my email".}

STRONG BAD:{voiceover} On Tuesdays, I check my snail mail.

{"checka my snail mail" appears in handwriting on Tuesday. Cut to Strong Bad at a mailbox that reads "sb_snailmail.exe"}

STRONG BAD:{singing} I got a snail mail in my pocket, and I think it's starting to melt...

{He opens his letter, clears his throat and reads it.}

Dear Mr. Bad,
This constitutes your final warning.
Please remit payment of three(3)
dollars and sixty-two(62) cents or
you will be turned over to a "cut off
your toes" -style collections agency.

Swarthily,
Bubs' Concession Stand

STRONG BAD:{speaking sarcastically} Oh no, final warning. Is there nothing I can do to dissuade you? Like maybe give you a ride in my... {normally} BMW?!?

{Strong Bad pulls out the BMW lighter and burns the paper, laughing. He then looks around.}

STRONG BAD: ...BATTLE AXE LESSONS AT THE REC CENTER, with my teacher Dolph Hauldhagen, The Instruc-TOR! And of course, Sunday is the other day I check my email, for our Eastern European viewers across the pond.

{"checka my eastern european emails" appears for Sunday. Cut to Strong Bad sitting at a gray computer with the word "BLOCK" in the bottom-left corner.}

STRONG BAD:{singing} I got a Polish email in my pocket, and I think it's starting to melt.

At the end, the Paper comes down, but does not cover the first line of the email, as it does in other emails. (This is probably because the Strong Sad Easter egg on "my week" is on this line, and could not be covered up.)

In the scene for biz caz fri at the office, Strong Bad appears to be typing with his hands sideways. In most emails that show his typing, he would be typing like a normal person.

Strong Bad's polo has no buttons on it.

Goofs

Homestar got his polo shirt from setteksiD .ctE!

When Homestar says "so many frags" and is looking to the left, his torso is flipped, and consequently the buttons on his collar appear on the wrong side and "Diskettes Etc." appears backwards for a split second. However, this does not happen when he says "No, yeah, no?"

When Strong Bad turns off the vacuum in Strong Badia, you can still see a patch behind the vacuum of the dirt cloud.

When Strong Bad is vacuuming, his right eye is a lighter shade of green.

Real-World References

Strong Bad's intro song for this email (as well as for the snail-mail and the East-European email) is sung to the tune of Oh! Susanna.

When Strong Sad is waking up Strong Bad for swim practice, he mumbles various things, ranging from "I'll kill you" to the name of the classic SNESRPG, Chrono Trigger. The "I'll kill you" in the swim practice Easter egg is directed at Magus, a villain/party member in the game. (Also see Inside References.)

Janus, the name of the Polish email sender, is also a significant name in Chrono Trigger.

The name of his other computer, "Block," is a reference to the Soviet Bloc—the group of Eastern European nations which were under communist government.

The style of voice-over during the Polish email is reminiscent of that used on Polish television, where foreign language programs are not dubbed with different actors, but instead narrated entirely by a single actor, usually male. Also, unlike American dubbing, in which the re-dubbed track replaces the original, Polish dubbing is laid on top of the original audio track, as the narrator's voice is here.

The text on the battle axe lesson flyer which instructs you to bring your own axe and exercise mat is in the same font as Iron Maiden's name almost always appears (Metal Lord). One of their first songs ever, "Invasion", released only on a four track album of which 5000 copies were made, was about Viking invaders.

Strong Bad's imitation of a robot seems to be a reference to Harry in the documentary "Spellbound," a spelling bee contestant who spontaneously replies to a question from the interviewer in a robotic voice, and finishes off by saying "I-am-a-musical-robot. Do-I-sound-like-a-musical-robot?"

"Stay smart, vacuum...dirt" may be based on "Be Smart! Don't Start!", a motto used in a series of '80s PSAs trying to discourage minors from drinking alcohol.

The phone number for Brian Holmes, Certified Arborist (555-XYLM), is a reference to xylem, the major water transporting tissue of vascular plants.

Strong Bad's line "Again with the Dear Strong Bad..." is a reference to Jerry Lewis's unique style of speaking.

Fast Forward

Strong Bad's final payment notice is signed with Bubs's full name, which was revealed to be Bubs Concession Stand in Senorial Day. Here "Bubs'" has an apostrophe, though, as a possessive, which isn't seen in Senorial Day.
